In the NBA Midseason Championship 1 4 finals, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Suns 106-103. Before the game, the major **people** were different, some supported the Suns, and some supported the Lakers. Although the Lakers won, the process was extremely difficult, as he encountered an offensive team led by Durant and Booker. So what did the Lakers rely on to win the eventual victory?

First, James is in control. In this game, James played 40 minutes, shooting 12 of 25, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, 31 points, 8 rebounds, 11 assists and 5 steals, with only 2 turnovers. In addition to James' phenomenal play on both offensive and defensive ends, his control and reading of the whole court are the key to the Lakers' victory. The most obvious thing is that at the last moment, I saw Reeves stumbling and about to lose the ball, so he went directly to the referee and called a timeout. He was very successful in taking over the game in the final quarter, and that's the king, and the 39-year-old James is still invincible.

Second, the offensive and defensive role of the thick eyebrows inside. In this game, Davis played 39 minutes, shooting 10 of 26 from the field and 7 of 8 from the free throw line, and got 27 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks. In particular, he grabbed 8 rebounds in the final quarter and helped the team win. Although the offensive end is in average form, the thick eyebrows and defensive area make it difficult for Suns players to score or profit near the basket, which is the role of thick eyebrows.

Third, the defensive strength of the forward group. Prince, Reddish, Hachimura and Van der Biao took turns to lead the defense to consume Durant and Booker, especially Booker was directly pinched and his scalp was numb and completely lost his level - Booker only scored 21 points on 16 shots, and the Lakers' defense was obviously successful. The four major forwards took turns to scramble for frontcourt rebounds, making the Lakers shoot more than 20 more than the Suns, and to be honest, this game was a bit of a playoff steal. The swinging forward group composed of Lao Zhan, Reddish, Prince, Hachimura, Van Debiao and Thick Eyebrows played a suffocating defense, with height, impact and mobility. After the return of the forward group, the Lakers are not afraid of any team's challenge.

Fourth, the rise of Rivers. In this game, Reaves played 27 minutes, shooting 7 of 16, 3 of 8 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists. At the beginning of the season, Rivers was a little sluggish as a starter, but entering the role of substitute as a sixth man has brought him back to an excellent level, and Reaves is not soft at critical moments, and he also has a strong offensive ability, and is developing in the direction of the Lakers' third giant.
